I’ve had the pleasure of filming at a few tracks for the first time this year. Anglesey, Thruxton and Spa have all been great fun with their own unique challenges. But despite being new to me biggest challenge remains the same as any other circuit or the calendar: getting a wide variety of shots, covering all the series in the CSCC.

Thruxton was no exception. As usual I spent Saturday morning soaking up the atmosphere in the paddock, the headed out to explore vantage points during qualifying. Despite the lack of features, it’s a great track to film. The open nature of the circuit makes it easy to access most areas, giving you the ability to cover a number of corners and still make it back to the pits during a race.

What a great track for my first overseas filming trip! The weather was hot to say the least, but that didn’t distract from a fab weekend of filming.

Donington’s one of my favourites to film. The cars ascending through Craner Curves look awesome as they pop out from the undulating track. The grass frames the cars beautifully as they snake down the slightly curved straight. I tried to venture further afield this time out but it’s hard to outdo the views from Craner Curves and Goddards. The cars raced on the full GP circuit for the second day, which was a first for me and the CSCC series.

Another TUI family life holiday and another fab time. Not sure it was possible for our kids to have any more fun!
